Flying disk with retrieving device

Abstract

There is provided a game toy in the form of a flying disk with a handling device for retrieving the flying disk. The flying disk consists of a standard sized and shaped flying disk having a smaller disk-shaped element axially attached to and spaced from the convex side of the flying disk by means of a spacer. The handling device consists of an elongated sword-like element having a handle portion and a flat blade portion which is adapted to engage the flying disk in the groove defined between the flying disk and the disk-shaped element so that the disk-shaped element rolls or rides on the blade portion of the handling device in the nature of a grooved wheel on a track. The handling device is used in retrieving the flying disk, so that the flat blade portion of the handling device is inserted into the groove between the two disks while the flying disk is in flight and caused the same to stop.

What is claimed is: 
     
       1. A flying disk with handling device, comprising: (a) a circular flying disk having a saucerlike generally convexly-shaped outer surface;   (b) a saucer-like disk-shaped element having a generally convexly shaped outer surface, substantially smaller in diameter than said flying disk, co-axially fastened to said flying disk so that the generally convexly shaped outer surfaces thereof face each other and are spaced from each other to define a groove therebetween, the respective perimeters of said flying disk and said disk-shaped element being thus arranged to define between them an aperture substantially greater than the dimension of said groove; and   (c) a sword-like handling device for retrieving said flying disk having a handle portion and an elongated flat blade portion, the blade portion of said handling device having a cross-sectional dimension smaller than the groove defined between said disk-shaped element and said flying disk, wherein said disk-shaped element and said flying disk are spaced apart from one another by an axially arranged bushing whose axial length is greater than the cross-sectional dimension of the flat blade portion of said handling device; and   whereby the size of the aperture defined between the perimeters of the flying disk and the disk-shaped element and the central planar portion of the flying disk facilitates the entry of said flat blade portion into the groove between the walls of the flying disk and the disk-shaped element so as to ease the retrieval of said flying disk, the flying disk riding or rolling on the flat blade portion as a wheel would ride or roll on a track.   
     
     
       2. The flying disk with handling device as defined in claim 1, wherein said flying disk, said disk-shaped element and said bushing are coaxially fastened together by means of a through going rivet means. 
     
     
       3. The flying disk with handling device as defined in claim 1, wherein said flying disk and said disk-shaped element are formed of plastic. 
     
     
       4. The flying disk with handling device as defined in claim 1, wherein said handling device is formed of plastic. 
     
     
       5. The flying disk with handling device as defined in claim 1, wherein said handling device is formed of wood. 
     
     
       6. The flying disk with handling device as defined in claim 1, wherein said handling device is formed of metal. 
     
     
       7. The flying disk with handling device as defined in claim 1, wherein said flying disk and said disk-shaped element and said bushing are integrally formed as a one-piece plastic construction. 
     
     
       8. The flying disk with handling device as defined in claim 1, wherein said disk-shaped element is integrally formed with a bushing and secured coaxially through a central opening with said flying disk.
